It is followed in percentage by agriculture, which decreases from 19.52% to 17.67%.
The month of February 2020 has maintained the trend of the last year as a month of reduction of unemployment although it has traditionally been of increase, having broken this trend only in the years 2017 and 2019. The biggest decline has been mainly in the agricultural sector.
The Councilor for Economy and Employment, Juan Gil, stressed that "the policies of the Government of Spain, such as raising the minimum wage, are giving security and stability."
